Skydome Help?
Bought the Iray Skydome Superpak of hdri dome images on sale today, but once installed it doesn't seem to work...says assets are not found:
IR-SUN.obj
IR-Base.obj
IR-SKydome.obj
I searched through finder and can't find them. unzipped the downloaded file and can't find them there either. Using Daz 4.8 on a mac.

Answering my own question....those items aren't included in this Super Pak which isn't very super after all. Asking for a refund.
Now it's getting confusing - in the other thread barbult says that you don't load in a skydome model for Iray.
Using Iray the HDRI are plugged into the Environment Map of the Iray Dome. You can use a Skydome made for 3Delight in Iray but there are a few setting that have to be changed in the surface tab to do it.
"Now it's getting confusing - in the other thread barbult says that you don't load in a skydome model for Iray."
Yeah, I didn't undrestand this either. Perhaps different images are mapped differently to the environment "sky"? Some images are square while others are very wide rectangles so they's have to "map" differently right? I loaded a wide image to the environment map and it just came out blurry and I could only see part of the clouds, the rest being cut off. How do you control the placement of the mapped image?
